Water Water Everywhere

March went out like a lion in central Florida. We had heavy rain, wind, and lots of lightning as Mother Nature showed her strength. Our immediate area showed what heavy rain will do with the ponds over flowing and the concern of how long it would last. It all ended well with March of this year being rated 5th for the amount of rain in the Tampa area. Wish we could get that one inch of rain every Friday evening. Wouldn't that be great.

Spring Visitors

Spring brings out the colorful flowers, new born Sand Cranes, aquatic species, and of course friends that were able to visit for a few days. We always enjoy having visitors and sharing the sights and sounds of spring in Florida. The super moon was shining bright the entire evening. It was closer to earth and was 38 percent brighter than normal. What a sight. Don and Diane were traveling through Florida and were able to include us in their travels. Nice to have friends that take time to stop and visit. Look closely at the photos of the pond. The one with the bird flapping its wings was warning us as we walked around the pond of the ever elusive intruder, the alligator. Our favorite pastime is sitting on the carport and watching the hummingbirds return. We have three regular ones and what fun they have playing around the feeders. Hope spring is soon in every ones area to enjoy the change of seasons.
